Safeguarding and Protecting Children Course (SPC1)
Every child deserves to enjoy their sport. This workshop will raise your awareness of the telltale signs of abuse, and give you the tools and confidence you need to deal with any issues sensitively, appropriately and effectively should the need ever arise in your coaching career.

Time to Listen Course
Time to Listen is a 3 hour workshop developed by the Child Protection in Sport Unit specifically for Club Safeguarding Officers. The workshop has been adapted for netball and uses practical examples and case studies to enable you to fully understand your role in the club and England Netball and how you can effectively safeguard young people in your care. The course is aimed at Club Safeguarding Officers only and you must have already attended a Sportscoach Uk Safeguarding and Protecting Children course (or equivalent) as Time to Listen builds on this prior learning.
County Sports Partners also run Multi Sport Time to Listen courses which are accepted for CAPS accreditations. Contact your County Sports Partnership to find courses in your local area.
